One of the biggest concerns with the Ryzen platform is memory compatibility and stability, this is one of the primary reasons why we are testing these memory kits on the Crosshair VI Hero. If you are looking to buy into the AM4 platform, we would advise you to ensure that the motherboard has been updated to the latest BIOS, of which, we have found significantly greater stability and compatibility. Team Group have ensured that the Delta RGB has been tested by all the major board partners and will be featured on the latest QVL for all the current platforms.

Enabling the XMP profile is a quick and easy way to ensure that your memory will be running at its rated performance, however, Ryzen itself can be rather finicky in regards to timings. The 3000MHz model, works seamlessly with timings of CL16-18-18-38, but the 2400/2666MHz version using CL 15-17-17-35 may be a different matter, and in this situation we would recommend using CL 16-16-16-36. The Delta RGB kit we were using was capable of 2666MHz CL14-14-14-32, which is great should you want tighter timings. This, sadly was the limit for CL14, while 3000MHz was the limit for stable CL16-16-16-32. We were happy to have found that the XMP timings (Cl16-18-18-18-38) was stable at both 3200MHz, and 3333MHz, giving decent headroom over the rated 3000MHz. All settings were achieved with 1.35V, and though the Delta RGB memory modules are rated for 1.2-1.4V, we would recommend not going above 1.35V on a Ryzen system.
